Housing register review form

Please complete this form if you want us to review a decision we have made about your housing application.

Exceptional circumstances

The council recognises that there may be exceptional circumstances where it becomes necessary to reconsider the qualification criteria in the case of individual applicants who would not normally qualify. The council may reconsider the qualification of these individuals in extreme exceptional circumstances, for example where there is a threat to life and no other housing options are available.

If you would like the council to reconsider if you qualify to join the housing register please explain your exceptional need and attach any supporting information on the following pages.

The personal details you give may also be shared with certain external agencies that help assess and/or give services, as part of any statutory duties requiring such disclosure and to protect the public funds it collects and administers.

It is an offence under the Forgery and Counterfeiting Act 1981 to hold or present false documents such as birth certificates, passports, bank statements and so on, with a view to obtaining goods or services such as temporary accommodation or permanent housing from Birmingham City Council. If we detect fraud, we will take legal action against you.
